His encounter with Indian spirituality over a period of twenty-five years deepened and enriched his Christian faith beyond measure. The fruits of this profound spiritual experience are to be found in this treasured book Prayer.\n\nThe book was, as the author wrote, “written beside the Ganges in very close contact with the spiritual experience of the Upanishads …. In [it] there is nothing technical. It seeks rather to be a travelling companion on the road that leads within.”\n\n“A simple and practical handbook resplendent with the gems of Christian and Hindu wisdom, Prayer has rightly been acclaimed a classic and can be compared to similar works authored by contemporary Christian mystics who have explored contemplative prayer through Eastern and Western Spirituality, namely: Anthony de Mello, Hugo Enomiya-Lassalle, Bede Griffiths, William Johnston, Thomas Keating, John Main, Thomas Merton, Vincent Shigeto Oshida, Ama Samy, David Steindl-Rast, Vandana Mataji and many more pioneers in interreligious spiritual understanding.”\n-from the Editor’s Note\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1530119464\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1530119464.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Abhishiktananda, Swami|Atmananda Udasin, Swami|Stuart, Dr. James D.M.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
